Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Religious Life of the Anglo-Saxon Race The religious life comes of man´s relation to the great Creator. On that relation depends highest worth to the individual and in the aggregate, to the nation. Man is a religious being whether found in barbarian wilds or in the whirl of modern civilization. His religion has always had much to do in shaping his progress. The savage depends upon his fetich, the civilized man upon the word of the seers. Doubtless God in some way answers the cry of all his children no matter by what means they try to approach him. The Anglo-Saxons have all along been most devout. The first glimpses of these people show them to have been highly religious, with a spirit most independent and stubborn and on their coming to Britain these peculiarities and other valuable ones were steadily developed. With willingness to work or to fight, with an aggressive instinct keenly alive to opportunities, having a language well adapted to human needs, and later with an open Bible, it is no wonder that they became great and powerful. It is the purpose of this work to trace the forces of the religious life that have aided the English-speaking race to become so mighty and successful. It will be shown how in various fields of its civilization these forces have been present and active. Many means besides the distinctly church beliefs and practices have helped in that elevation.
